MANY TOPICS OF THE TURF
Called From Every Quarter—stake
Event* of the Morrl* Park Fall
Meeting:—Great Horses.
The Brighton Beach race track which
has always been a favorite with the
masses threew open its gates on Tuesday
last, the 22d instant. The course is said
to be more attractive than ever, as the
grounds have been entirely remodeled ami
a new $50,000 grand stand has just been
built. The entries are liberal in the var-
ious stakes, and include horses from all
the prominent stables. The purses for the
overnight events vary in value from $500
to $600. which shows a liberality on the
part of the management which no doubt
will be appreciated by owners. As a con-
sequence the fields in overnight events
are sure to be large throughout the meet-
ing which will continue until Aug. 14.
Eugene Leigh states that Patrician, the
good son of St. Blaise—Peeress, has broken
down, and is not likely to go to the post
again this year.
The well-known racing stable of Ilan-
klns Johnson, which has raced in the
west at various times during the past
few years a number of high-class horses,
is a thing of the past, the partnership hav-
ing recently been dissolved. The cause of
the dissolution is stated by Mr. Hankins
to be his belief that he as an owner of a
race course should not have horses run-
ning at hi3 track, and he therefore dis-
posed of his interest in the stable to Mr.
Johnson.
The ill-luck which has pursued Mr. Bel-
mont's stable since his departure for Eng-
land some three weeks ago has extended
to his stud, his great stallion Rayon d'Or
having breathed his last at the nursery
stud, near Lexington, Ky., a few days ago.
Foaled in 1876, Rayon d'Or at 20 might well
have been expected to be of service for
several years more. His comparatively
early deatn is a great financial loss to the
■New York banker, especially as his pro-
duce was onoe more beginning to assume
the great prominence upon the turf which
they occupied during the period of his
ownership by ex-Senator W. L. Scott.
Judge J. J. Burke in a letter to the
Spirit of the Times of the 18th says:
"There is no denying the fact that the
average race-goer can not understand the
apparent deviation in form of cripples like
the Commoner. Hornpipe. Counter Tenor,
etc., all of whom this year have ranked
in almost the same class as the winners
of the big handicaps of the year, and then
a few days afterwards see those same
horses unplaced in selling races. No won-
der the average race-goer asserts that
there is something wrong with form. The
great trouble is that these cripples are run
in selling races perhaps a little short of
wjjfk, or under the impression that they
need not .i)0 up to their very best form
to win them, whereas their trainers know
they must be at their very best in order
to win the big handicaps and accordingly
every effort is made to have them "keyed
up" when they start for those races.
Both owners and trainers of such
horses seeijj to ignore the fact that their
horses are bet upon in these selling races
by the public on the assumption that they
ate up' to the best form, and if they are
rodt the public have paid a great price to
find it out. No wonder, therefore, that a
howl goes up that reaches from Maine to
California when a good handicap horse,
running in a selling race, is seen to be
under the whip half a mild 'from home,
and no wonder that enemies bf racing take
advantage of such a state of affairs to
denounce the whole institution The
remedy? It is simple enough. Make
it a penal offense to run a horse for
work. Oh. yes: it is done many times,
and evreybody who goes racing knows it.
It is a good deal worse when done by a
stable which is known as a "non-betting"
stable. People don't expect it from such
owners. Experience has taught them that
so-called betting owners would rather send
their horses to the post fit and then back
thefa than to deliberately fl$' in the face
of public opinion by running horses de-
liberately for work one day and then back
them heavily the next day. Racing
in St. Louis Is to-day as good as
any thnt 1 have seen anywhere for
years. Tho meeting has been badly han-
dicapped by a phenomenal run of rainy
weather, to say nothing of the terrible
cyclone, but I am of the opinion that from
now on we will see some excellent sport,
and that after all a llnanclal success will
be achieved, something very problemati-
cal at one time. Too much credit can not
be given the association for their sports-
manlike action regarding the national der-
by and other races transferred to St. Louis
by tho Chicago Fair association last year.
The derby was run on June 20 in the pres-
ence of one of the grandest assemblages
that ever saw a race, and Mr. M of tit as-
sures me that he has every reason to feel
proud of the race and the manner* in
which the public turned out to see it.
Tho breeders of America owe a groat deal
of gratitude to the St. Louis Fair asso-
ciation for the great support which its
action gave to western racing at a orlti-
cal time, and personally I hope it will be
many a long day before the Missouri rac-
ing authorities will feel obliged to ask
for reciprocal favors."
Misfortune seems to have marked Jockey
"Mickey" BUfin. While working Tttrenturo
at Milwaukee a few days since the brute
vshied and threw tho poor unfortunate lad
against a fence, breaking two ribs and
badly straining his hip. A day previous he
had the mount on May Gallop and lost all
the money he had in the race, because he
was pocketed and unable to bring his
mounit through the bunch.
St. Louis Republic, July S3: J. S. Wil-
liams, United States marshal of the north-
ern district of Texas, with headquarters
at Paris, is in the city on his way home
from a trip 'to Columbus. He jailed about
seventy federal prisoners in t'he United
States prison at that point. Mr. Williams
Is an enthusiastic turfman and has spent
the last two afternoons at the fair grounds.
Two! of his horses. Valet and Hi hernia
Quoin, have been here all season. Mr.
Williams has an own brother to Barney
Setyrel'ber's 2-year-old. Sugarfoot, named
Carl Holland. According to his owner,
Carl Holland can beat any horse fn Texas
in the mud. Sugarfoot showed that he
could run in the heavy going at the fair
grounds Monday, when he was beaten two
heads on the post by Scorcher and Big
Night. •
The Cincinnati Enquirer savs: Thorpe
and Scherrer are running a very close race
for jockey honors. Up to and including
Saturday Thorpe had four winning mounts
t'he best of the Cincinnati boy. Thorpe had
won 25 races, been second 23 times asnd
third 16 times. Seherrer's record was 21
firsts, 23 seconds and fT thirds. Yesterday's
racing made no change as far as winning
mounts go, as neither rode a winner. The
other iockeys that rode two or more win-
ners during the 21 days ending Saturday
were as follows: C. Reiff 13. Pupee 9. A.
Isom 8, Perkins 6. Ray and Fowler 5 each,
Nutt, Piggott and Martin 4 each. Sims and
Huston 3 each, and R. Williams and B.
Blevins 2 each.
A correspondent of the Spirit of the
Times writing from Cincinnati over the
nom de plume of "Broad Church," is re-
sponsible for the following: "Mr. L. P.
Tarlton. one of the Latonia judges, is a
•prominent Kentucky republican, and had
cons-lderable to do with framing tho plat-
form in the republican national conven-
■tlon. Per contra. Col. Jack Chiivn, the
starter, is a dyed-in-the-wool Kentucky
democrat, ft pronounced silver!te and he
wa« a aealous worker in the Chicago con-
vention. Tarlton says McICInlev will carry
Kentucky by a handsome nmjorHv while
Clvlnn Insists there will be a democratic
landslide. My own opinion is the republi-

tial election, and mainly because large

"Dare Devil" Fl-tzpatriek, a crack-n-lack
"knight of the pigskin" in his dav re-
ceived much favorable comment from tho
press upon his starting at tho Milwaukee
meeting, wihlch just closed. The meoilnsr
was not a flnanoial 8ueoea*i, as the local
oUatiUle was unXortunutsJy email and uhe
Chicago race goers were not in evidence
to any extent this year—they preferring
the nearer Indiana tracks. The racing,
however, was of an excellent class and
the Messrs. Bush aad Johnson have more
than carried out their every promise.
The following is a partial list of stake
events to be run at the fall meeting of the
Westchester Racing association at Morris
Park, N. J., beginning Oct. 13, and ending
Nov. 3: For 2-year-olds, the Hurr.-
cana. the Castleton, the Silver Brook, the
Rancocas, value $2000 each. For 3-year-
olds. the Jerome, the Belle Meade, the
Hunter handicap, the Ramapo handicap,
the Falrview. the Woodburn and the Mor-
ris Park handicap, value $3000 each. For
all ages, the Bronx handicap, the Fordam
handicap, the municipal handicap, the Turf
and Field handicap and others.
NAT J. KAUFMAN.
Disability of Eyesight.
Fort Worth, Tex., July 24.—The many
friends of Capt. John J. Haden of the
eighth United States infantry, with station
at Fort D. A. Russell, Wyoming, will learn
with regret that hie has been ordered to
report on Aug. 10 at Chicago for examina-
tion by an army retiring'board. Capt. Ha-
den is a native of Navarro county and was
the first cadet ever appointed to West
Point by Roger, Q. Mills. Graduating near
the head of one of the largest cla=»es tver
turned out of that institution, he has for
twenty years back served as a commis-
sioned officer In command of troop* in ev-
ery campaign waged against hostile In-
dians in that period. His present disabil-
ity is failing eyesight. In the event of his
retirement he will, under existing law,
draw three-fourths of active duty pay for
life. Capt. Haden loves the army and no
one regiets his present physical disability
more than he. In the event of his retire-
ment the service will lose one of its recog-
nized gallant and able men. Capt. Haden
has large property interests in Navarro
county, and should he be re tired he will.no
doubt return to Texas and make his home
at the point near Blooming Grove where
he was raised.
Waco's Financial Condition.
Waco, Tex.. July 24.—Cl'ty Secretary R.
W. JablonowskI submitted a report to the
city council, accompanied by a detailed
statement concerning every fund and pos-
sible city expenditure for the coming year
and showing that an Increase in taxation
will be necessary. The report concludes
as follows:
"I hereby submit estimate cf the cost
of maintaining the city government of the
city of Waco from October. lSJVJ, to Octo-
ber, 1897, together with indebtedness al-
ready Incurred from present time until
Oct. 1, 1896. The tax levy to raise the same
as subitted in this report will be enough
to pay about $19,(KX) of the indebtedness
of the current fund: this much of the
debt will have to be paid; therefore, it is
included in the estimate. The levy neces-
sary to pay this and maintain all of the
departments of the cltv, as you will see
by reference to attache.! report, amounts
to $1.03 on the $100 of Taxable values, which
is approximately $11,000,000. The estimate
for interest and sinking fund include the
balance of garbage furnace notes, all of
the bonded indebtedness, including school
bonds now being lithographed, also the
note given A. Ockander for street im-
provement. The levy necessary for this
purpose amounts to 71 ccnts on the $100
taxable values. 1 will state I do not in-
clude the levy for support of the public
free schools, as the trustees have not
furnished me with the amounts required
and to this will have to be added the in-
debtedness of that department, which
amounts to $4430."

Waco, Tex., July 24.—Mr. J. B. McEnny,
who spent ten years in China in the ser-
vice of the British government, Is on a
visit to Waco. He said to-The News re-
porter: "The Chinese empire will become
English or Russian in language and char-
acter within the next quarter of a century.
At this time Russia has the advantage,
being a near neighbor and havi-ng gained
a great deal of influence with the Chinese
government. Rrtsslan engineers are sur-
veying the lines for railways ^nd tele-
graph. Russians are teaching the Chinese
the art of war. At the s-ame time British
and American Influence is having its ef-
fect on the language spoken by the masses.
The -Chinese find their greatest difficulty
in the fact that they have a language
wholly unavailable for intercourse with
foreigners. It Is made up of Ideographic
and phonetic signs, and characters and it
takes an age for a foreigner to master
it. For practical purposes the sign lan-
guage used by deaf and dumb people is in-
finitely preferable. The character of the
language prevents progress and profit m
the establishment of telegraph lines. The
government haa built several tines con-
necting the larger cities, and while a cheap
operator can transmit the numbers stand-
ing for the characters it takes the highest
class c*f scholarship to receive a message
and write it out in ideograph. For tliis
reason the telegraph lines have proved a
costly experiment. As railroad building
advances the telegraph lines come of ne-
cessity fn connection with t'he railways.
American and PJritish operators get posses-
sion and they immediately discard the
Chinese sign language and send the rail-
way messages in English. In this way
the English language is becoming dissem-
inated and it seems probable that it will
gradually root out the mother tongue ami
shut out the Russian language, l met an
intelligent young Chinaman who grew up
in California and he told me the Chinese
government had offered him an induce-
ment to return and take up the business
of teaching English. He said there were
hundreds of American raised Chinamen
who have returned to their native land at
the instance of the emperor and were now
engaged in giving instructions in English
at the expense of the government. The
Chinese were slow in arousing themselves
from the lethargy of ages, but their re*
"'cent war Wjjth Japan gave them a start
and there i£ no danger of their stopping
now. They will go on building telegraph
lines and railways and establishing ar-
senals and factories and as their quarrels
and commerce increase their use for Eng-
lish will also Increase. For the present
their commerce in the interior is con-
ducted just as it was in the days of King
Solomon, but evidences of modernizing
are to be seen on every hand. I saw at a
small station a merchant standing in front
of his store which bore the sign "family
grocery.' When I entered I found the man
had a full line of Chinese goods, but he
was also selling American canned toma-
toes. He addressed me in English, which
was very unusual on that portion of
China. In a state parade at Canton I
heard a band playing both 'Dixie' and .the
'Star-Spangled Ranner.' I predict that
within the next ten years China will be
covered with a complete railway and tele-
graph system dominated by American in-
fluence and operated by English speaking
people."
Live Stock Note*. •
Fort Worth, Tex., July 24.—Live stock re-
ceipts for the four days this week ending-
last night: Cattle 209 head, hogs 488. sheep
271.
Thus far this week cattle have been in
good demand, the demand not being sup-
plied, and the sellers have come nearer
getting their own figures than for some
time. A few fair heifers and medium qual-
ity steers have been sold this week, but
the number of all grades of cattle was not
large enough to test the market. The de-
cline, especially of Texas cattle, Is having
a tendency to keep shippers from coming
to the market.
As for nogs, they have been few and far
between in the markets so far this week.
This is owing to the 3(jfl0-eent decline in
prices. The hogs that have thus far come
in sold fairly strong with but little dis-
crimination in weights. The demand is
good at a rtfi'tO-cent reduction on the open-
ing prices the first of the week.
W. D. Farris while in Fort Worth re-
cently said that he did not consider his
process of killing ticks on cattle by dipping
an experiment any longer, but a decided
success. So far he has dipped 1000 head of
stock and there is not a live tick to be
found on any of them. He says It Is a lit-
tle bit more difficult to kill them on ciws
than on steers, especially in between the
hind legs, on account of the cow's udder.
He Is more than pleased with his under-
taking and believes he has accomplished a
feat that will prove highly beneficial to the
cattlemen of Texas. He thinks the vvu
used for the cattle can also be used suc-
cessfully to dip hogs in for lice, l our coal
oil on the water, then dip the swine. In ie-
gard to feeding the cattle sulphur for ticks
Mr. Farris says that he is afraid it will i*u
always do. After the blood of the animal
becomes filled with sulphur the hair mlwht
ecme off if it should rain on them. The
cost of dipping in the vat Is not expensive.
For the 1000 head that he dipped lie used
less than seven barrels of oil.
W. P. Anderson, general agent for the
Union stock yards at Chicago, is here iu-
day.
He stated ko-day that during his business
trips through the northwestern ranges ami
the territory that a decided increase ol
Texas shipments had been received this
season over last. He says: "Of tho«*
shipped out of here so far abcut 400,000 hav«
gone to the Indian and Oklahoma Territo-
ries. Of course a large portion of these
are being shipped out to market. Ship-
ments will continue until way along in
the fall. Of those shipped to Montana and
the Dakotas nearly 300,000 head will have
passed through Colorado and Arizona. New
Mexico and Texas. Upwards of 100,000 head
were handled by the Fort Worth and Den-
ver City from Texas. The Santa Fe will
have handled between 30,000 and 40.000 Tex-
ans from Panhandle City: the Rock Island
handled from Liberal. Kan., No Mans
Land and the panhandle between 20.000 and
30,000. Besides these shipments the Union
Pacific handled about 30.000 from Milford
Utah, to the same range countrv as the
Texas, New Mexico and Arizona cattle
went. The bulk of those, shipped to the
Dakotas .and Montana as 2s and 3s ami
will not come out to market until 1X98 " in
sneaking of the conditions of pasturage
Mr. Andersooa. states that then* is more
good grass on tftose ranges than the cattle
will ever graze off this season. The season
so far has been good. In the winter stock
graze on this summer's crop of grass and
unless a wet snow eoWs they will not suf-
fer for forage. A dry snow blows off and
the stock finds plenty browsing. Last win-
ter was a seasonable one ^nd no suffering
was reported. The pastured now in the In-
dian Territory are also rich and the stcok
are doing first-class, but he dees not think
the most of them are ready t. r market.
That Is. he believes It will pay th. shippers
to wait a while lcnger before going to
market.
S. A. Roberts of Blooming Grove, Navar-
ro county, is here to-day with a shipment
of hogs. He said that his s< ction of the
state has a large number of heir.- and that
the swine growing industry has increased
rapidly the last year oj two. Last ye.tr
the farmers raised more corn and feed
than they knew what to do with. This
season the corn crop is not so good, and he
fears that some of the farmers will n t feed
so many hogs until they ltn t out grain
will be shipped in cheaply. Corn is selling
with them now for cnlv 2'» cents per bushel.
He says that many of the cattlemen of
NOT THAT KIND.
